  1. Acclaim Cheltenham has successfully combined graphics, sound and game play into a racer that has heart-pounding speed, dizzying visuals, great control and excellent multiplayer functions.
  2. Small nuances, like the changing weather conditions...and the incredible rush of speed during the starightaways, along with a smoother look and a greater sense of control, realy helps XG3 for the GameCube put a nicer spin on the genre, and edges out the PS2 version by a margin.
  3. There are only 12 cycles on a huge track, leaving you by yourself for much of the race. [Jan 2002, p.128]

    Above average, but not great. Average racer-boy gameplay, with good but not great graphics. I dunno - XG3 just didn't do much for me.

    Very very very disappointed with this game. the only saving grace are the tracks which aren't enough to warrant a purchase or rental (swapped out same day for another). Expand
